Now, that Darren thought about their friendship, it made his mood dampen a little as well. Because he was reminded that his idiot of a best friend hadn't shown his face even once! He really shouldn't have been hoping to see that idiot but he did.
"Nora..." he called out Nora. "Is my best friend planning on coming inside anytime soon?"
Nora pursed her lips and asked, "How do you know he is outside?"
"He is my best friend," replied Darren. "I know him better than he knows himself." He sighed out, "Right now, he must be sulking somewhere. With his indecisive personality, if I don't drag him here he won't dare appear before me thinking he is the one at fault." He took a pause briefly, "But that idiot doesn't even realize that even if everything's been his fault, I'd still like to meet my best friend."
